NPAT Gene Summary [Human]
Enables protein C-terminus binding activity; transcription coactivator activity; and transcription corepressor activity. Involved in positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II and regulation of transcription involved in G1/S transition of mitotic cell cycle. Located in Cajal body; Gemini of coiled bodies; and cytoplasm. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

Protein Domains
A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in human NPAT often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
